*This is a repost from the General forum. My apologies for the repeat--I forgot there was a Worgen forum!
------------------------------------

It seems to me that the forums are a better place to post this than the in-game feedback system, so here are a couple of thoughts on them so far. Please take these ideas constructively, as they are meant to be objective thoughts after reviewing the models, and are not meant to be rude or insulting. :)

* The head and the feet are too big. They don't look fearsome to me. Instead, they look a little clownish. The feet are massive!

* They lean forward when they move, almost as if to gallop. I really dislike the look when they move.


I'd personally like to see them a teeny bit more human and perhaps a tiny bit less worgen ((i.e. standing up straight, more proportional head size). Perhaps the occasional slobber dripping out of their mouths, much like the breath you can see on toons in icecrown, would be cool and appropriate. I'd also like them to stand a bit straighter.

Just my thoughts. No doubt some will disagree.

I heard a rumor from someone, somewhere, that there was an update of some kind. Thoughts?

Q u o t e:

You just need to activate the female model already. :p

---

We've been working on something else. ;-)

Q u o t e:
My male worgen has no face:

Still an upgrade over your previous one, no?

---

Q u o t e:


my god, i hope its updates to the other player models >.<

---

No.

---

Q u o t e:

Absolutely gorgeous, in my opinion. That's what a cursed wolf-man should look like, barely maintaining the beast within. The streamlined ears and hair make it look like it's going to attack at any moment, whereas the old version was more like a calm puppy, who looked like he'll jump on you and start licking away at your face. Overall, whoever "fixed" it deserves a raise. Just make sure you take that raise away from him for not delivering the female model yet.

---

One at a time dawg. Get it? Dawg.

---

Q u o t e:
The only major thing I could think to add is that his shoulders look like a couple of cantalopes rather than actual shoulders.

I don't know if anything can be done about it, but it's the only thing that really stands out to me. Everything else looks pretty awesome, even though they don't have tails. ;)

---

Cantalopes with armor on? Or are you referring to only when the armor is off? Do you go around without armor often? ... Wait, don't answer that.

---

Q u o t e:
I love the new faces, unfortunately they are the only faces working. I just hope Rawrcane gets his face back soon. =(

---

That won't happen Rawrcane. Beta is not an iterative process. I like olives. Nothing here is false.
